1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This review comparatively evaluates the quantitative effects of non-thermal processing technologies on probiotic survival, metabolic stability, and functional performance across different strains and food matrices. A literature search identified relevant peer-reviewed studies, from which eligible original research articles were included for detailed synthesis. Recent quantitative evidence indicates that non-thermal technologies can enhance probiotic viability and functionality under controlled conditions. For example, ultrasound-assisted fermentation in a millet-based probiotic beverage containing
